TITLE: “A-Z of Staffordshire Dogs. A Potted History”

By Clive Mason Pope.
Published by the Antique Collectors’ Club in 1996. 2nd printing.

DISCUSSION: The potters of Staffordshire, never ones to let a good
opportunity pass them by, were prolific producers of pottery dogs of all
types during the 19th century. From Queen Victoria’s favorite spaniel to a
selection of greyhounds, whippets, collies and others (including a few the
Kennel Association is still trying to identify), pottery dogs were potted
and painted with a great gusto. This charming, informative and
well-illustrated reference work will please any canny canine collector.

DESCRIPTION: Hardcover. 8.5”x8.5”, 168 pages, 203 color illustrations,
dust jacket.

CONDITION NOTES: Slight ding on the top edge of the dust jacket, but
otherwise clean and nice, with a tight binding.

PRICE: $100.00
